Does anyone keep testing the bg as they have feelings of hypo but when tested it's not low as I have this feeling a lot of times and how many times do people test a day I've known to test between 10-15 times a day because of these feelings

Yes I do and you can get false hypos. Sometimes because you feel lethargic tired grumpy irritable and often grumpy and angry, it's just because that's part of the symptoms of fluctuating bloods. Some symptoms are the same high and low. Yeah keep testing then you can decide how and what to do if you need to. My average is now between 5 and 7 times a day .9 on the odd occasion.

Sleep disruption always made me feel dreadful, even though my bloods were fine. And then I struggled through the next day.
